RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Partial splenic embolization (PSE) has been proposed to treat the consequences of hypersplenism in the context of portal hypertension, especially thrombocytopenia. However, a high morbidity/mortality rate has made this technique unpopular. We conducted a multicenter retrospective nationwide French study to reevaluate efficacy and tolerance. METHODS: All consecutive patients who underwent PSE for hypersplenism and portal hypertension in 7 tertiary liver centers between 1998 and 2023 were included. RESULTS: The study population consisted of 91 procedures in 90 patients, with a median age of 55.5 years [range 18-83]. The main cause of portal hypertension was cirrhosis (84.6 %). The main indications for PSE were (1) an indication of medical treatment or radiological/surgical procedure in the context a severe thrombocytopenia (59.3 %), (2) a chronic hemorrhagic disorder associated with a severe thrombocytopenia (18.7 %), and (3) a chronic pain associated with a major splenomegaly (9.9 %). PSE was associated with a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt in 20 cases. Median follow-up after PSE was 41.9 months [0.5-270.5]. Platelet count increased from a median of 48.0 G/L [IQR 37.0; 60.0] to 100.0 G/L [75.0; 148]. Forty-eight patients (52.7 %) had complications after PSE; 25 cases were considered severe (including 7 deaths). A Child-Pugh B-C score (p < 0.02) was significantly associated with all complications, a history of portal vein thrombosis (p < 0.01), and the absence of prophylactic antibiotherapy (p < 0.05) with severe complications. CONCLUSION: Our results strongly confirm that PSE is very effective, for a long time, although a quarter of the patients experienced severe complications. Improved patient selection (exclusion of patients with portal vein thrombosis and decompensated cirrhosis) and systematic prophylactic antibiotherapy could reduce morbidity and early mortality in the future.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: PRSS1 and PRSS2 constitute the only functional copies of a tandemly-arranged five-trypsinogen-gene cluster (i.e., PRSS1, PRSS3P1, PRSS3P2, TRY7 and PRSS2) on chromosome 7q35. Variants in PRSS1 and PRSS2, including missense and copy number variants (CNVs), have been reported to predispose to or protect against chronic pancreatitis (CP). We wondered whether a common trypsinogen pseudogene deletion CNV (that removes two of the three trypsinogen pseudogenes, PRSS3P2 and TRY7) might be associated with CP causation/predisposition. METHODS: We analyzed the common PRSS3P2 and TRY7 deletion CNV in a total of 1536 CP patients and 3506 controls from France, Germany, India and Japan by means of quantitative fluorescent multiplex polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: We demonstrated that the deletion CNV variant was associated with a protective effect against CP in the French, German and Japanese cohorts whilst a trend toward the same association was noted in the Indian cohort. Meta-analysis under a dominant model yielded a pooled odds ratio (OR) of 0.68 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.52-0.89; p = 0.005) whereas an allele-based meta-analysis yielded a pooled OR of 0.84 (95% CI 0.77-0.92; p = 0.0001). This protective effect is explicable by reference to the recent finding that the still functional PRSS3P2/TRY7 pseudogene enhancers upregulate pancreatic PRSS2 expression. CONCLUSIONS: The common PRSS3P2 and TRY7 deletion CNV was associated with a reduced risk for CP. This finding provides additional support for the emerging view that dysregulated PRSS2 expression represents a discrete mechanism underlying CP predisposition or protection.

RESUMO

Background and aims Colonoscopy is currently the reference method to detect colorectal neoplasia, yet some adenomas remain undetected. The water infusion technique and dying with indigo carmine has shown interesting results for reducing this miss rate. The aim of this study was to compare the adenoma detection rate (adenoma and adenocarcinoma; ADR) and the mean number of adenomas per patient (MAP) for blue-water infusion colonoscopy (BWIC) versus standard colonoscopy. Methods We performed a multicenter, randomized controlled trial in eight units, including patients with a validated indication for colonoscopy (symptoms, familial or personal history, fecal occult blood test positive). Consenting patients were randomized 1:1 to BWIC or standard colonoscopy. All colonoscopies were performed by experienced colonoscopists. All colonoscopy quality indicators were prospectively recorded. Results Among the 1065 patients included, colonoscopies were performed completely for 983 patients (514 men; mean age 59.1). The ADR was not significantly different between the groups; 40.4 % in the BWIC group versus 37.5 % in the standard colonoscopy group (odds ratio [OR] 1.13; 95 % confidence interval [CI] 0.87 - 1.48; P = 0.35). MAP was significantly greater in the BWIC group (0.79) than in the standard colonoscopy group (0.64; P = 0.005). For advanced adenomas, the results were 50 (10.2 %) and 36 (7.3 %), respectively (P = 0.10). The cecal intubation rate was not different but the time to cecal intubation was significantly longer in BWIC group (9.9 versus 6.2 minutes; P < 0.001). Conclusion Despite the higher MAP with BWIC, the routine use of BWIC does not translate to a higher ADR. Whether increased detection ultimately results in a lower rate of interval carcinoma is not yet known. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION: EudraCT 2012-A00548 - 35; NCT01937429.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH) leading to non-cirrhotic portal hypertension has been described in HIV-infected patients and has been linked to didanosine. The relation between NRH and other antiretrovirals remains unclear. METHODS: A case-control study was performed in 13 patients with NRH and 78 controls matched for time of inclusion, baseline CD4, and duration of follow-up. Univariate and multivariate conditional logistic regression analyses were performed. RESULTS: Control patients and patients with NRH were similar at baseline regarding demographics and biological data with the exception of older age for patients with NRH (43.9 vs. 33.5 years, p=0.044). At the time of NRH diagnosis, cases had a lower CD4 count (327 vs. 468/mm(3), p=0.013), a similar CD4 percentage (24 vs. 26.2%, p=0.7), a lower platelet count (169 vs. 228 giga/L, p=0.003) and a higher AST level (33 vs. 26 IU/L, p=0.001) than controls. Univariate analysis demonstrated that patients with NRH had been exposed longer than controls to didanosine, stavudine, tenofovir, didanosine+stavudine, and didanosine+tenofovir. The age at baseline [OR 2.2 (1.0-5.0) per 10 years, p=0.053] and didanosine+stavudine cumulative exposure [OR 3.7 (1.4-10.2) per year, p=0.011] were independently associated with NRH. The age at baseline [OR 2.3 (1.0-5.3) per 10 years, p=0.045], cumulative exposure to didanosine [OR 1.4 (1.1-1.9) per year, p=0.023] and to tenofovir [OR 1.7 (1.0-2.8) per year, p=0.04] were independently associated with NRH when didanosine+stavudine exposure was excluded from the model. CONCLUSIONS: NRH in HIV-infected patients seems strongly related to age and the cumulative exposure to didanosine+stavudine, didanosine, and stavudine.
